šØEMERGENZZšØGot this beauty for Valentines Day from my partner. In the last 2 wks or so Iāve noticed a few tips browning and some other spots; I REALLY want to nip this situation in the bud ā whatever it is ā before it gets worse. She was THRIVING when I got her (last pic). Lives in a north facing floor to ceiling breezeway window. Bright but definitely indirect light. Have not repotted since brining her home. Have only watered two times since February. Have not fertilized since it came with the little green pellets in the soil. Any thoughts on course correction? Zendaya thx you in advance šŖ“

I planted two of these Green Mountain Boxwood 2-3 weeks ago in Columbus OH. They are both potted and in my courtyard. I sprayed them with Neem Oil on Friday. Am I missing something?
Hi! I recently purchased this philodendron from Trader Joeās I think itās a pink princess bc of the stem colors. When I first got it the variegated parts were brown, but the mostly white leaf was beautiful and it was putting out new growth quickly. The day after I bought it, one of the leaves formed this fluid filled bubble and I ended up cutting it off when I noticed it was growing. I then repotted it into well draining soil and a slightly bigger pot. A few days later and the variegated spots on the leaves are all turning brown now! It gets bright indirect light from both East and West facing windows, and Iām being careful to not overwater. Please help!
Just repotted this calathea after noticing it drooping. Im pretty sure its just under-watered and low humidity so iv moved it closer to the humidifier and watered her hopefully theres no pests ill update if she gets betterš
Hi Plant Lovers! Does anyone know why some of my Ficus Benjamina leaves are wrinkled like this please? My partner has had this for around 25yrs now (I took over caring for it around 12yrs ago as he was looking quite sorry for himself. The plant, not my partner š) and we've never noticed the leaves do this before. I only water when the top couple of inches of soil is dry, allowing it to drain properly. I've checked for pests and can't see anything. It's growing new leaves so seems generally healthy, but these wrinkly leaves are concerning me. Should I be worried?
My dracaena was doing fine since 2023 suddenly i notice yellowing leaves Adding pix for comparison Please help
Whatās going on with my jelly bean succulent? Seems to be a couple of different issues.
My neighbor gifted me a beautiful umbrella plant today, however upon further inspection, I noticed it is covered in scale. I immediately sprayed it down with the hose outside and picked off what I can see by hand and used paper towels to wipe both sides of the leaves. Then i spray neem oil all over the plant and will leave it outside for the next few days. Please give me any tips and tricks you have to get rid of this as fast as possible. This is the first time I have dealt with any plant pests. I also cut off badly yellowed or spotted leaves & the ones that were very infested.
Help needed! Noticed a āblisterā on my aloe. There is one larger section on left leaf and a small dot on the right leaf. My routine and location have not changed except I put some Systemic granules in the soil ~2 weeks ago (I do this every so often) and spilled a few grains on one of the leaves, I believe it was the left one. I brushed them off but is it possible it created micro-tears in the left and caused irritation? I donāt see signs of mites or bugs otherwise, and have never before. Not sure if anyone has seen this before.
Several of my plants are struggling and I canāt work out why, different plant types too. These plants get: - 12 hours of grow light a day, grow light is about 3ft away - Humidifier for a little more time than the grow light is on, 71% currently - Room temp 20C - Watered based on their own needs, Iām pretty good at watering so donāt think this is the issue Any and all advice is welcome please?
I think my catnip is dying?? It was doing fine a week ago and growing a bunch. I thought I finally figured out why it wasnāt growing new leaves and it was doing so well š but now a bunch of the leaves are turning brown and shriveling up. Is it fungus, rot? Or is it the coco coir??
Can anyone help figure out why my Asparagus Fern is dying? Full sun, repotted recently with an orchid mix, watered usually every 1.5 weeks. Planta says to water around every 3 days, though I feel like that's to much as the dirt is still damp by the time it says to water again.
Please help my pup! I canāt figure out whatās wrong! It was doing fine until about a week ago. Itās such a baby pup Iām afraid if I donāt do something to help it soon Iāll loose it because itās not quite hardy enough as a mature plant.

Rubber Tree Dilemma & Advice I was out of the country for 2 months, and my propagation system failed for my rubber tree, so it was bone dry and pretty limp when i returned. I added before and after pics for context. I cleaned and checked the roots, they seem fine still. But itās been ~2 months since i got back and the leaves are still droopy and the stem is still leaning a little. There is a new shoot which is good. But i donāt know whether to cut the stem down to 2 inches and start over, or try propagate from scratch using the new shoot. Or simply keep monitoring. Any advice?
